NextEra Energy missed profit estimates for the second quarter, hurt by higher interest rates and expenses in its renewables segment. Higher interest rates, which the U.S. Federal Reserve started raising last year to curb inflation, have weighed on the utilities sector, as they make dividend-paying stocks such as REITs and utilities - also known as bond proxies - less attractive and drive up borrowing costs. The world's largest renewables company reported $802 million in interest expenses in the second quarter, compared with $135 million it paid a year earlier.  ( 66 min )
